Looking forward to this!
As i like anthologies in one package and i see that the demo 1983 is only released on 7", will there also be a CD version with everything on it? If there's too much music on it, maybe a 2CD then?
I got it and it's an excellent release... the label can be proud. I was surprised by the second 7", some great music and performance there. The double LP is fantastic as I expected.
Yes all 3 excellent releases.Tthough the 2 7" make it a tiny bit more expensive, possibly a 3lp set would have worked better, I'm not complaining. Probably folks would then complain that 3lp is expensive
Thanks for the words on the releases, we're very proud of how it all turned out and glad it's a worthy tribute to the band's legacy.
For some background, the DLP and 7"s actually came out at the same time by accident- the 7"s were still in development when the DLP went to press, but the DLP took a very long time to press and the 7"s very little time to press, so we got them all at the same time. But at that point we'd taken many pre-sales for the DLP so it was no longer possible/fair to release it as a set. And you're right, there would probably be complaints about the cost for a set. Overall we're happy with the outcome, as it's also cool to have three killer unique releases.
Got the DLP two months ago from a Peruvian distributor, I must say the release is great, excellent quality and I wasn't expecting that much extra material.
Just one doubt, the signed post card, is it printed or is legit signature? cant tell

The signatures are legit- the band now live in different parts of Germany and each member signed all 500 and posted them on to the next member to sign until all were done. The effort involved makes it a really nice tribute to their old mate and brother in one member's case.
